SOCKS!!!! Yesterday was quite the
SOCKS!!!!
Yesterday was quite the day! I had planned a trip to visit my friend Julie for a lesson in sock knitting and double pointed needle usage that nearly got upset by something I needed to take care of at work. As a result of both projects I now know how to map sequencing reads to our genomes with BLAST (not earthshatteringly difficult) and I have the start of a beautiful sock for my husband!
I always learn better when I learn from someone. Sitting down with Julie to learn a few tricks about dealing with socks and double pointed needles made all the difference in the world. I know have about 1.5" of sock for John. It probably won't be fast going for me, but I don't think I have as much fear of socks as I used to.
John also did me a big favor last night by taking pictures of all my knit gifts. I should be able to get those up before the first of the year! Digital cameras are wonderful!
I am not sure if I will get to post anything else before the holidays commence and my trip to Ann Arbor commences along with them. Soo....
